Anniversary bash for Camp Louise The Girl Scouts of Penn’s Woods Council are hosting a weekend camping bash, Au- gust 20-22, to mark the 45th Anniversary of Camp Louise, Berwick, owned and operated by the Girl Scouts since 1959. The anniversary celebration is dedicated to the magic, memo- ries, friendships and fun that have been the spirit of Camp Louise for 45 years. Girl Scouts, alumnae, campers, staff, families, friends and supporters of the Girl Scouts of Penn’s Woods Coun- cil are invited to register for the entire weekend, Friday through Sunday, or just to come for the official celebra- tion day events beginning at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 20. All guests will enjoy full use of camp facilities including swimming, canoeing, hiking, archery, fishing, music, profes- sional wildlife presentations and field games. A $5.45 regis- tration fee for the day includes an All Camp Cook Out at 5 p.m. The day will conclude with a closing flag ceremony, followed by a traditional Girl Scout campfire complete with S'mores and a twilight wish- boat launch on the lake. “Camp Louise is one of Penn’s Woods Council’s great treasures,” said Jamie Kozemko, Camp Administra- tor. “We have returning campers coming from as far away as the West Coast for this event. Countless = girls “have made and still make wonderful memories here.” Camp Louise has owned, maintained and operat- ed by what is now the Girl Scouts of Penn’s Woods Coun- cil since 1959, when 177.1 acres on Jonestown Mountain, near Berwick, were purchased and donated to the Girl Scouts by Louise and Marco Mitrani. The property was named after Louise Mitrani, a pre-WWII Hungarian-Jewish immigrant who became a lifelong support- er of the Girl Scouts because she believed that the develop- ment of democratic youth or- ganizations, like the Girl Scouts, could have helped to avert the Nazis’ rise to power in Europe. Sallyanne Rosenn, Penn's Woods Board President from 1965 to 1972, noted that Camp Louise has kept pace with the needs of Girl Scouts. “I han- dled camp registrations for Camp Louise,” Rosenn said. “In those days, they did mostly pioneering activities like build- ing campfires, cooking and sleeping out and canoe trips.” Rosenn said she appreciates that the Girl Scouts’ pioneer- ing spirit remains strong, espe- cially at camp, challenging girls with programs in science and technology, space explo- ration and high adventure. To- been streamside wetlands, day, Camp Louise covers 340 acres of scenic woods ‘and is just a’ 15-minute drive from Berwick. A 25-acre lake, older growth evergreen forests and dry mountainside forests char- acterize the landscape of Camp Louise. The camp boasts mod- ern rest rooms and bathing fa- cilities, a health care facility, an outdoor swimming pool, hik- ing trails, an abundant array of wildlife and, most notably, new cabins built by Girl Scouts. Camp Louise offers more than 50 programs for girls and is open year-round, with tent units, cabin units, a large din- ing hall and a camp store to ac- commodate troops, adults, summer resident campers and local and international staff. The camp is fully accredited by the American Camping Associ- ation and meets or exceeds Girl Scouts of the USA stan- dards.
